Towns led team seems to be picking up steam.
Hold off on what? They were 4-9 and lost before the cancer left. A towns led team will be a legit playoff contender. Will they beat the top 3 in the west? Hell no, but it’s good to see growth.They've also had an easy schedule during this stretch, only 2 road games and 4 teams they've played with an above .500 record(1-3 in those games). Not that they can't make the playoffs because there are only a few teams out West who I would say are "locks" to make it, but it's been 12 games. Maybe hold off on this until the all star break.
Covington is a great player and his personality actually teaches others to use the things he does that benefit.They have looked REALLY good the past couple of games.
Covington is an amazing player. People get so caught up in volume baskets that they often times don't realize great players at other aspects of the game. Covington is a flat out great basketball player.
Wiggins the past few games has shown glimpses. If they can just keep him with this same mindset moving forward, they'll be a playoff team this year and have a chance to be really, really good down the road.
...and how big of an ass must Jimmy Butler be? Completely different team mood withou him here.
Jones being in there makes the other off guard have to cheat when rose drives. Dieng is the one who should never see an nba floor again.The one thing they need to do is bench Tyus. He essentially is playing 2 guard with Rose being the main point with the 2nd team. Gives Jones minutes to Okogie and develop the rookie who has looked really good at times too.
10 of those were against teams currently above .500 and the last 5 of those were all on the road, that's a tough schedule. It's tbd if Towns can lead a team to being a legit playoff contender but he has gotten better post trade. Also there is a regular season thread where you could post stuff like this, if you weren't aware.Hold off on what? They were 4-9 and lost before the cancer left.
